Default Going to Track for first time - Ever!

Well, Friday night running up to the track in Southern IL to see how she'll do. I've read the post from Ranger on launches and I got my ET Street Radials to go on. I'm just sort of nervous about breaking something more than anything I think. I think I might take a water bottle and go out and practice on some burnouts and do some runs around here to see how the tires and everything works out. I guess in the end, it's like everything else. Just takes getting use to and repetition is the key. Anybody else around close, would be fun to have more company as it's just me and a Camaro (over 600hp w/spray) going up.
